MP Wig VJ re la The- Day's lews By FRANK JENKINS Tonight the people of the Klam ath Basin will come together at a dinner sponsored by the Klamath County Chamber of Commerce to do honor to Dick Neuberger and Tom Watters. Dick is Oregon's junior senator. Tom has just-com' pleted a grueling term of service as the chairman and member closest to the spot of the Manage ment Specialists group that has handled the complex and at times soul-trying job of termination of federal supervision of the Klamath Reservation as provided by Public Law 587, as finally amended. In Oregon's long and honorable history, no two men have more richly deserved the thanks and the respect of their fellow citi zens. Many good people helped with what turned out to be a stag gering 10b. But Senator Neuberg er and Management Specialists Chairman Watters carried the heavy end of the burden of respon sibility. The burden was heavy. The responsibility was great. Tom Watters is my neighbor. I've known his hjbits for a long time. The load that came down on his shoulders when the secre tary of the interior named him chairman of the Management Spec ialists group changed utterly his way of life. It wasn't a pleasant change. He had to give up nearly everything he liked best to do. from May 2, 1955, when he was appointed, until August 25, 1958, when the job was completed, there was practically never a minute that he could call his own. In those three years, Tom Wat ters became a DEDICATED man. He dedicated himself WHOLLY to the job he had to do. I've known Dick Neuberger ever since he was in college. I opposed him in the campaign that resulted in his election as U.S. senator from Oregon. I wasn't too much impressed by his first year in the senate. But There arose about then the necessity to amend Public Law 587 in order to make it fairer to all the Klamath Indians and less disastrous to the ecuqomy of the Klamath Basin and all-of Oregon especially Southern Oregon. Senator Neuberger tackled the Washington end of the job. He made it his major interest. Like Tom Watters, he became a dedicated man dedicated to the greater welfare of the Klamath Indians, who were chiefly con cerned, since the Klamath Reser vation is THEIR heritage, and to the long-term best interests of his stale. He forgot politics and became a statesman. Ours is a government of laws. There are times when many of us fear it is trending toward a government of men. But if we can keep the right kind of men in public service, we will have nothing to fear.

CASTEL GANDOLFO, . Italy (API The life of Pjus XII, Pope for 19 years of war and ideological strife, was ebbing away tonight.

This meant both his heart and CLARENCE HUMBLE Vet Attorney In DA Race Clarence Humble, 55, veteran Klamath Falls attorney, entered the race for the post of district attorney today when he filed his intentions to participate in the write-in race. Humble's entry into the three- way race came as the result of petitions signed by a considerable numbe of supporters urging him to run for the post. Humble came to Klamath Falls in 1930 and was admitted to the Oregon Bar the same year. He was deputy district attorney under L. Orlh Sisemore from 1941 to 1:145, and held the post of district attorney from 1945 to 1941). He has been engaged in private law prac tice since that time. He was recently appointed po lice judge by the city of Klamath Falls. In filing for district attorney, Humble said, "I have received petitions signed by about 600 vot ers of Klamath County asking me to run again for the office of dis trict attorney for Klamath County. I feel deeply honored that so many voters of both parties have taken the trouble to express such confi dence in me. "Therefore, I wish to announce my candidacy for the office of district attorney in Klamath Coun ty. 1 wish to assure all voters that if I am elected, I will again operate this office in an efficient and impartial manner. "For the benefit of the new vot ers, I would like to say that the last time I was elected district attorney, I was nominated by both the Democratic and Republican parties. I gladly refer all voters to any of the judges or law enforce ment officials for an appraisal of my experience, ability and success as district attorney.

One of the physicians, while de clining use of his name, said: "He is in his death agony. ' A 101-degree fever and a speed ing pulse were symptoms of his decline. A Vatican radio speaker, broad casting from the Pope's ante chamber, told of an air of resig nation about the sick room. All in the antechamber rela tives and high church authSrities prayed, some of them aloud. It was reliably reported that the rope had been given Lxtreme Unc tion the last rite for the dv- ing or those in danger of death for the second time. It had been given for the first time as he lay in a coma Monday after his first stroke. The second attack was of the same type as that which felled the pontiff Monday, a cerebral circu latory attack which produced coma and partial paralysis. It came on him at 7:30 a.m (1:30 a.m., EST), just 47 hours alter the first stroke. It was learned unofficially at the Vatican press office that the Pope s heart was weakening and had become irregular after the second attack. The Vatican radio said the pon tiff had regained consciousness for a time and requested Holy Com munion but was unable to swal low the host, the thin wafer of un leavened bread representing the boay and blood of Christ. He was then given Absolution forgiveness of sins and apparent ly became unconscious again soon alter. Prelates of the pontifical court were called urgently to C a s t e 1 Gandolfo, presumably to make ini tial arrangements in connection with the grave turn in the pon tiff's condition and its possible consequences. Three of the four specialists who had been keeping constant vigil at the Pope s bedside were with him when the .second stroke came. It was the second time the 82- year-old head of the Roman Cath olic Church and spiritual leader! or some 500 million Catholics had been near death. Four years ago a serious illness struck the pontiff, 261st in a long series of sovereigns who sat on St. Peter s throne. 'Janice' Takes 19 Victims MIAMI, Fla.
